Thursday is from now on Packaging Training day. We'll have regular one-hour sessions in #ubuntu-classroom on irc.freenode.net where we'll have speakers who present a packaging technique and leave enough time for all packaging related questions you might have.
For those of you who are not familiar enough with the English language, we'll have people in #ubuntu-classroom-{de,es,...} who will help to translate your questions.
We will rotate session times to make sure the sessions work for all timezones. We'll follow a 1st Thursday 6:00 UTC, 2nd Thursday 12:00 UTC, 3rd Thursday 18:00 UTC, 4th Thursday 0:00 UTC (5th Thursday 6:00 UTC) pattern. For the first month April, we're proud to announce the following sessions:

This link is very useful if you upgraded library and want to start work on application dependent on it.

Hi Quentin,
It would be great to have a list of required packages, sort of a software wishlist. Aliki looks like a good choice though I'm not sure how the beta status would figure in the equation.

This is great! :)
There are some packages which I (and others) do miss in Debian/ Ubuntu:
LV2
LV2 plugins
Ingen, zynjacku and zyn
jconv
jack_mixer or livemix
whysynth
freeverb3
(guitarix, don't know if it is ready for implementation yet)
So if you like to maintain one of these packages or others, please join!
Would be very nice!
Thanks in advance,

Cheers! Dave.

Let's hope we can muster up our own team of package builders to support Debian Multimedia and keep 64 Studio at the leading edge of GNU/Linux Audio distributions. It sure is is performing brilliantly here. If we can keep the install medium at CD size with a well stocked repository of applications I think we're on the right track.
Cheers! dave
